DMC4 playable at TGS

New game announcements too.

Capcom will have a number of playable units of the Devil May Cry 4 on the show floor at the Tokyo Game Show next week for PlayStation 3's public playable debut in Japan.

There'll also be a similar number of units split between single- and multiplayer demonstrations of Xbox 360 exclusive Lost Planet.

We're also told to expect new game announcements - perhaps for Nintendo Wii - along with video presentations of other titles. Resident Evil, please!

Other titles on Capcom's TGS line-up include PSP sequel Monster Hunter Portable 2nd and Power Stone Collection, while Clover Studio's latest curiosity God Hand will be holding court for PlayStation 2.

Meanwhile, Phoenix Wright will be playable on DS, along with Rockman Rebirth - in other words, another Megaman title - and Capcom Classics Collection on PSP.

So that's:

  • Devil May Cry 4 (PS3)
  • Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (Xbox 360
  • Monster Hunter Portable 2nd (PSP)
  • Gyakuten Saiban 4 aka a new Phoenix Wright (DS)
  • Power Stone Collection (PSP)
  • Capcom Classics Collection (PSP)
  • God Hand (PS2)
  • Rockman Rebirth (DS)

The Tokyo Game Show takes place between September 22nd and 24th, and we'll be there to lower the tone.
